Countdown to February Contest Results


Hello Everyone! It's the 15th of March and time to share our favorite contest image(s) from February. If it makes Staff Fav/Finalist/Winner, all the better. So give your favorites a showcase here, tell us why you picked them, and join us in the countdown!

Going off memory, I think February had nearly 6,800 images which is more than January, even with only 28 days. So, that’s a good thing…more photos. But we are nearly halfway thru March, and the rate is lower than in Feb.

BP has already gone thru the Feb EPs, and they may take another pass before they announce Staff Favs. And hopefully this month, we’ll see Staff Favs by March 21st.

So, upload your Fav photo(s) then join us as we await the contest results. Good luck everyone!

  Some helpful hints for attaching photos into a BP Forum Thread, if you're unfamiliar with the process:

1) Sign into BP. IF YOU HAVEN'T entered the Contest for today, you can use the "Photo ID" method to pull an existing image (from your Member Center) into your Reply here. This avoids a duplicate image upload to your Member Center. Note the Photo ID# of the image you wish to include here (visible in your Member Center) then return to this thread, click Respond, enter the text of your reply, and choose "1" from the images-to-attach drop-down (even though you won't actually be uploading a file.) Click Submit; at the next screen, populate the "Photo ID" field shown over at the right. Skip the other text fields on that screen, check the boxes at the bottom, and Submit.

2) IF YOU HAVE ALREADY entered the Contest for today, you can't use the Photo ID method *today*. Either wait until tomorrow to reply here first, or upload a copy of the image (from your PC) and attach to this thread. This produces a duplicate image in your Member Center; however, you don't have to make that duplicate visible in your Gallery.

If you're uploading a duplicate, I suggest titling it "For Forum" so it stands out in your Member Center, for easier housecleaning later on. This can also help nudge BP viewers to go find the original image in your gallery, if they want to leave a comment. Likewise, if you want to add a comment to a photo seen here, first try to tell if it is a duplicate upload. As a courtesy, try to find the original image in the member's gallery and leave your comment there instead of on the duplicate... which may one day be deleted.

From the traveling "Architects of Air" exhibit that was in Omaha, NE for a couple of weeks. There are many tunnels and domes inside, with lots of hues and colors. The sunlight bounces around, giving it a surreal feeling. across the curved walls.
